The California-born, Melbourne-based comic is no stranger to Queensland having toured extensively over the last 20 years.
“I was working in Edinburgh and then I got an offer to come out and I jumped on it, I wanted to come out and work. It was pleasant from the first visit," Arj said.
Arj said Organic is very polished at this point, having toured it for a year and a half.
“I have got it flowing really smoothly. I’m actually recording the DVD the night after Mount Isa.”
“If you have something better to do, by all means go for it but it’s gonna be a really fun night down there,” he said.
Arj broke into comedy with a starring role as Brett and Jemaine’s friend Dave on HBO hit series 'Flight of the Conchords'.
He has made numerous appearances on late night talk shows including Letterman and Conan O'Brien, and had his own HBO half hour special produced by Comedy Central.
Organic is this Thursday November 30, 8pm at Mount Isa Civic Centre, tickets are $49.90 from mietv.com.au.
He is a favourite in Australian too; having appeared on numerous panel shows and International Comedy Festival Galas.
